12 hour biome changes

提案/Suggestion

With 4 biomes now, it’s much more difficult to get the biome that you want , please reduce the biome change time from 24 hours to every 12 hours.

現状/Current Status

It changes every 24 hours

Not sure if this would work out in practice.

If the habitat changes at 0000 UTC and 1200 UTC, that’s 8am and 8pm for me. The change at night wouldn’t matter much for me since I won’t be actively hunting at that time, and it’s close to bed time, and I won’t see the morning part of it much since I’ll be preparing to head to work anyway. The utility of the “night shift” would likely be lower for certain time zones. I believe it is practically unsafe to head out after nightfall in certain areas of the world, so if the habitat changes for those players after nightfall, it has near-zero utility.

Plus, if the RNG still does not play out in your favour for the areas you will be playing in, it wouldn’t make a difference on how fast it changes.

Personally, I’d prefer a predictable habitat rotation than the current RNG version. While making it RNG makes for interesting grid formations (e.g. the joy when you need a Legiana and you’re surrounded by 4 grids of swamp in town), it can also make it less desirable (e.g. you need Diablos instead of Legiana).

It resets at 00:00 of the time zone the grid is in, so they’d just reset it then like normal.
